How it unfolds
It begins at a guesthouse above Chefchaouen, with a welcome dinner and the mountains in front of you. Then you enter the park, and you don't leave it until the last day.
Into the park
From the guesthouse onto the Talassemtane trails, as far as the first camp. By the first evening you already know the silence here is a different kind.
The old cedars
The heart of the park, the Khatabi forest, trees old enough that nobody ever cut them. You reach the second camp with legs that know they've walked.
The Akchour waterfalls
Down towards the water, between walls that close in. The third camp is the last one, and it's the one nobody wants to strike.
Back to Chefchaouen
You return to town carrying six days of mountain, for a final night.
